Doused in a tasty and light creamy sauce, this Easy Kohlrabi Curry is bursting with lovely flavours that will develop over time so it will taste even better the next day. Perfect with rice and naan bread.

You can make this curry as mild or spicy as you like by using different strength curry powders. I prefer to use a medium curry powder which I find perfect against the light flavour and crisp texture of kohlrabi.

Kohlrabi is one of these vegetables I discovered recently and got to fall in love with. It has a mild flavour and crunchy texture and can be enjoyed raw or cooked.

This recipe can easily be made vegan by using dairy free yoghurt or coconut milk.

    I loved it and it was easy to do. I used green lentils rather than chickpeas and it still worked well.
